Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electrical equipment installation technology, and in particular to a cooperative structure for a controller and an adapter. Background Technology

[0002] In modern electrical automation and power distribution systems, controllers, such as control units for circuit breakers or dual-power transfer switches, need to be paired with adapters or mounting bases. This pairing must not only ensure that the controller can be securely installed during operation, but also facilitate its removal when maintenance, replacement, or commissioning is required.

[0003] Currently, there are various ways to fix the controller and adapter. One common method is to fasten them with screws or bolts. Although this method provides high connection strength and reliability, when it is necessary to disassemble the controller, the operator must use specific tools such as screwdrivers to loosen the fasteners one by one. The operation is relatively cumbersome, time-consuming and labor-intensive, especially in cabinet environments with limited installation space or dense equipment, where maintenance is very inconvenient.

[0004] Another approach is to use a simple, flexible snap-fit ​​structure. While this simplifies the installation process to some extent, it requires tools to pry open during disassembly, which can damage the snap-fit ​​or the equipment casing. Furthermore, this simple snap-fit ​​structure is relatively unreliable and unstable when exposed to vibration or impact, making it unsuitable for high-reliability applications.

[0005] Existing technologies generally lack a controller and adapter matching structure that can both ensure a firm and reliable connection and enable manual, quick installation and convenient disassembly.

[0006] Therefore, this utility model proposes a matching structure for the controller and the adapter to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art. Utility Model Content

[0007] In view of the problems in the existing technology, the connection and fixing structure of a controller and adapter relies on screws, which makes disassembly and assembly cumbersome, time-consuming and requires tools, or the use of simple buckles results in unreliable connection and easy damage. The present invention aims to provide a controller and adapter connection structure with improved structure that can effectively solve the above problems.

[0008] This utility model provides a matching structure for a controller and an adapter, including: an adapter and a controller; a connecting plate is fixedly connected to the adapter, and a locking hole is provided on the connecting plate; the controller includes a housing, and the controller is pluggably installed on the adapter.

[0009] The controller also includes a rotating shaft, a push button, an interlock button, a bevel lever, and a connecting block, all located inside the housing.

[0010] The rotating shaft is rotatably connected inside the housing; the pressing button is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft, and the pressing button part protrudes from the housing; the interlocking button is slidably connected to the housing, and the interlocking button is used to extend out of the housing in the locked position to engage with the locking hole of the connecting plate.

[0011] Furthermore, the angled rod is fixedly connected to the inner side of the press button; the connecting block is slidably connected to the inside of the housing, with one end of the connecting block abutting against the angled rod and the other end fixedly connected to the interlock button.

[0012] When the button is pressed and rotated inward around the axis, the connecting block is pushed to slide through the angled rod, which in turn causes the interlocking button that is fixedly connected to retract into the housing.

[0013] Preferably, the controller housing is symmetrically equipped with two sets of push buttons, two sets of rotating shafts, two sets of interlocking buttons, two sets of angled rods, and two sets of connecting blocks. This symmetrical layout allows the operator to press simultaneously from both sides of the controller, resulting in more even force distribution during unlocking and a more stable and reliable structure.

[0014] Preferably, the connecting block has a perforated structure inside, which is used to accommodate part of the interlock button to pass through, providing an installation base for subsequent fixed connection.

[0015] As a specific connection method, the interlocking button passes through the perforated structure of the connecting block and is fixedly connected to the connecting block. This method of passing through and fixing ensures a firm connection between the interlocking button and the connecting block, guaranteeing that the two can move precisely and synchronously when sliding.

[0016] Preferably, the beveled lever has a beveled feature. When the button is pressed and rotated, the beveled feature abuts against and pushes the connecting block. The design of the beveled feature efficiently converts the rotational motion of the button into the linear sliding motion of the connecting block.

[0017] Preferably, the controller further includes a reset mechanism, which provides a reverse driving force when the button is released, driving the button to rotate outward to reset, and simultaneously causing the interlock button to protrude outward to return to the locked state.

[0018] In one specific implementation, the reset mechanism includes a reset spring. The two ends of the reset spring abut against the inner wall of the housing and the connecting block, respectively. When the connecting block is pushed inward, the reset spring is compressed and stores elastic energy, so that the energy is released after the pressing action is released, pushing the connecting block to reset.

[0019] Preferably, the controller has a base feature that mates with the adapter. The base feature is used to guide and position the controller when it is inserted into the adapter, ensuring that the controller can be accurately installed in the predetermined position so that the interlock button is aligned with the locking hole.

[0020] This utility model has the following beneficial effects: 1. This utility model solves the problem of complicated disassembly and assembly of the controller and adapter in the prior art, which requires tools, by setting a linkage mechanism on the controller consisting of a pressing button, a rotating shaft, a beveled rod, a connecting block and an interlocking button. The rotation of the pressing button drives the retraction of the interlocking button. This achieves the technical effect of quick unlocking and convenient installation without tools, greatly improving the convenience of installation and maintenance.

[0021] 2. This utility model solves the problem of weak and loose connections in the existing technology by setting an interlock button that engages with the locking hole on the connecting plate of the adapter and using a reset mechanism to ensure that the interlock button automatically pops out and locks during installation. It achieves the technical effects of reliable locking, stable connection and strong vibration resistance.

[0022] 3. This utility model, by designing the controller and adapter as a pluggable modular structure, allows for integrated installation, solving the problems of large space occupation and cumbersome cable connections in existing technologies. It achieves the effects of saving installation space and reducing operation and maintenance costs, while also providing support for separate installation and offering customers a variety of options.

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0026] Example: Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 This utility model provides a matching structure for a controller and an adapter, which aims to solve the problems in the prior art where the installation and disassembly of the controller 1 and adapter 2 are complicated and lack convenient and reliable snap-fit ​​structures.

[0027] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a controller and adapter mating structure includes an adapter 2 and a controller 1. The controller 1 is pluggably mounted on the adapter 2. A connecting plate 9 is fixedly connected to the adapter 2, and a locking hole is provided on the connecting plate 9. The controller 1 includes a housing 5, and the controller 1 is provided with a base feature that mates with the adapter 2.

[0028] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the controller 1 also includes a linkage mechanism installed inside the housing 5; the linkage mechanism includes a rotating shaft 4, a push button 3, an interlock button 8, a beveled rod 6, and a connecting block 7; the rotating shaft 4 is rotatably connected inside the housing 5; the push button 3 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 4, and part of the push button 3 protrudes from the housing 5; the interlock button 8 is slidably connected to the housing 5 and is used to extend out of the housing 5 in the locked position to engage with the locking hole; the beveled rod 6 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the push button 3; the connecting block 7 is slidably connected inside the housing 5, one end of the connecting block 7 abuts against the beveled rod 6, and the other end is fixedly connected to the interlock button 8.

[0029] Please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 The button 3 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 4, and the rotating shaft 4 is rotatably connected to the inside of the housing 5. This connection method allows the button 3 to rotate around the axis of the rotating shaft 4 on the housing 5 toward the inside of the controller 1. The angled rod 6 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the pressing button 3. The angled rod 6 has an angled feature and rotates and swings synchronously with the pressing button 3. The connecting block 7 is slidably connected to the inside of the outer shell 5. The inside of the connecting block 7 is provided with a perforated structure. One end of the connecting block 7 is used to abut against the angled feature of the angled rod 6. The interlock button 8 is slidably connected to the housing 5. The interlock button 8 passes through the perforated structure and is fixedly connected to the connecting block 7. The interlock button 8 slides synchronously under the drive of the connecting block 7 and is used to extend out of the housing 5 in the locked position. This structure works so that when the operator presses the button 3, the button 3 rotates inward around the pivot 4, causing the fixedly connected angled rod 6 to swing. The angled feature of the angled rod 6 abuts against and pushes the connecting block 7 to slide inward. The interlocking button 8, which is fixedly connected to the connecting block 7, also retracts inward, thereby disengaging the interlocking button 8 from the locking hole on the connecting plate 9. When the button 3 is released, the button 3 rotates outward to reset under the action of the reset mechanism, the thrust of the angled rod 6 on the connecting block 7 is released, and the connecting block 7 drives the interlock button 8 to slide outward and protrude from the outer shell 5, so as to achieve the locking with the locking hole of the connecting plate 9. In a preferred embodiment, the housing 5 of the controller 1 is symmetrically provided with two sets of push buttons 3, two sets of rotating shafts 4, two sets of interlocking buttons 8, two sets of angle rods 6 and two sets of connecting blocks 7. This symmetrical arrangement ensures that the controller 1 can be operated from both sides and that the force is uniform and stable when unlocking.

[0030] In a preferred embodiment, in order to ensure that the button 3 can automatically return to the locked position after being released, the controller 1 also includes a reset mechanism; the reset mechanism is used to provide a reset force when the button 3 is released, drive the button 3 to rotate outward to reset, and simultaneously drive the interlock button 8 to protrude outward to the locked position.

[0031] As a specific embodiment of the above-mentioned reset mechanism, the reset mechanism preferably includes a reset spring; the two ends of the reset spring abut against the inner wall of the outer shell 5 and the connecting block 7 respectively; when the connecting block 7 is pushed inward by the angled rod 6, the connecting block 7 compresses the reset spring; when the button 3 is released, the reset spring extends and resets, pushing the connecting block 7 to slide outward.

[0032] Working principle: When the controller 1 needs to be installed, align the controller 1 with the adapter 2 and press it in. Under the action of the reset mechanism, the connecting block 7 is in the outer position, which drives the interlock button 8 of the fixed connection to extend out of the outer shell 5. When the controller 1 is pressed in, the interlock button 8 automatically locks into the locking hole of the connecting plate 9 on the adapter 2, and the installation and locking are completed. When it is necessary to remove the controller 1, the operator presses the pressing buttons 3 on both sides of the housing 5. The pressing buttons 3 rotate inward around the rotating shaft 4, which drives the fixedly connected angled rod 6 to swing. The angled feature of the angled rod 6 pushes the connecting block 7 to overcome the elastic force of the reset mechanism and slide inward. The interlocking button 8 fixedly connected to the connecting block 7 retracts inward in sync, so that the interlocking button 8 disengages from the locking hole of the connecting plate 9. At this time, the lock between controller 1 and adapter 2 is released, and controller 1 can be easily removed; when the press button 3 is released, the reset mechanism pushes the connecting block 7 and the interlock button 8 to reset to the outward protruding locking ready state; through the coordinated linkage of the press button 3, the rotating shaft 4, the angled rod 6, the connecting block 7 and the interlock button 8, this utility model solves the problems of inconvenient disassembly and assembly, the need for tools and the unstable connection of controller 1 and adapter 2 in the prior art.
